Answer:
Advantages of
intercropping:
(a) In intercropping, two or more crops
are simultaneously grown on the same field in a definite row pattern?a few rows
of one crop and adjoining to that a few rows of another crop. This practice
reduces intraspecific competition.
(b) This ensures that both crops can give
better yield.
(c) There is maximum utilisation of
nutrients and minimum spread of pests.
Advantages of crop rotation:
(a) It makes the soil fertile and helps in
the increase of crop yield.
(b) It also decreases the demand of
nitrogenous fertilisers as leguminous plants grown during crop rotation fix the
atmospheric nitrogen.
(c) The selected rotation of crops also
helps in pest control, as pests do not find their favourite crop in the next
season and it becomes difficult for them to survive there.
